6:30 PM - Participatory Workshop: Radical Design at the Canòdrom. A Workshop with an Insurrectionary Rhythm

Curated by Fernando Paniagua, this workshop seeks to connect the innovative and committed spirit of 1970s Chile with today’s design and creative practices in Barcelona, inviting participants to reflect and act on the challenges of our times. The session will involve a dynamic co-creation process between the audience and key voices in the city’s “revolutionary” design scene, working in rotating groups and drawing inspiration from musical interventions to generate initial ideas and outlines of transformative actions that address contemporary social challenges. All in resonance with the spirit of the exhibition How to Design a Revolution: The Chilean Path to Design. With the participation of Nus Cooperativa, Enmedio, Caldo de Cultivo, Makea Tu Vida, Ojalá esté mi bici and ProyectoUNA.

Organized by: PEMB, Canòdrom, Barcelona City Council
